At times we can find ourselves looking out at others and comparing our lives to theirs. They may appear to have a better job, a better relationship, better friends, a better financial situation, or they can just appear to be happier than we are. What we often forget is that each of us has a unique purpose in this life and our own set of lessons.
From this perspective, there is no point to compare ourselves or our lives to others. What serves us best is to look at how far we have come, what we have learned, and trust that we are right where we should be in our lives.
Life is a book of mysteries, you never know which page will bring a good twist in the story, so keep on reading because happiness comes when it is most unexpected.
When you feel overwhelmed and you are tempted to take everything into your own hands – be still. The battle is not yours. The battle is the Lord’s. When burdens press you down and you have no peace, it means that you are carrying them all by yourself. You need to know that God is our burden bearer.
You need to hand over your burdens to God.. When we give God our burdens, He replaces it with peace. When you trust God with your burdens, don’t take them back, allow God to solve them in His own way and in His own time!
It is easy to judge the mistake of others and difficult to recognize your own. It is easy to hurt someone who loves you and difficult to heal the wound. It is easy to set rules but difficult to follow them.
It is easy to dream every night but difficult to fight for a dream. It is easy to say we love, and difficult to show it every day. It is easy to make mistakes and difficult to learn from them!It doesn’t matter who hurt you, or broke you down. What matters is who made you smile and rise again!
